"Half a month!"

"What can we do?"

Hou Sheng didn't complain, Lu Sheng offered to take half a month, whether it was half a month or a month, it was destined to end not very well.

The kind of elixir that is not harmful to the body, but can also be good for the body, and the benefits need to be immediate, they really can't refine it.

"Brother Hou, the master who gave you the pill at the beginning, there is really no way to contact him?"

What Lu Sheng is talking about is the pill that can bring seriously ill patients back to life.

They originally had two, one of which was sold at a high price to a nobleman who used to be of the Chu State, and then they ran away to Jieshi, fearing that they would be settled by the other party.

The second one, in order to save himself that day, was used on a seriously ill man.

"For the past few years, I have been trying to contact the master, but to no avail."

"Even if you can, half a month won't be enough."

"Unless he happens to be in Xianyang, it's impossible."

Hou Sheng shook his head and said.

Lu Sheng said: "Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, we can't give up!" ”

Hou Sheng hesitated to the end, thinking that it made sense, and said: "I'll give it a try, while contacting, we will continue to study, how to get a pill out, if it really doesn't work, you can use flour to make a similar pill, see if you can cope with the past, anyway, they don't understand the pill." ”

"Let's talk about it!"

Lu Sheng calmed down, and said guiltily: "Brother Hou, I dragged you into the water, I'm sorry!" ”

Hou Sheng didn't blame anyone, and said helplessly: "Brother Lu found me at that time, he trusted me and was willing to take me to make money together, needless to say, I can understand." ”

Next, they proceeded as planned.

Time passed quickly, half a month, and thirteen days passed unconsciously.

They couldn't figure out anything, so in the end, they really used flour, rubbed a small pill, boiled the herbs, soaked the flour, made it full of medicinal flavor, and disguised it as an immortal medicine.

Anyway, this thing won't be harmful to the human body, but it won't do any good either.

More than ten days have passed since I contacted that master, and there is still no result.

"Two days to go!"

Lu Sheng frowned and said: "If the flour can be fooled, we still have glory and wealth, if not, we can only die." ”

"Leave it to fate!"

Hou Sheng gave up the struggle, chose to lie flat, and lay down until the day he died.

No matter so much!

Soon, it was the day before the delivery.

If it was before, they were still very worried, since they chose to lie down, they didn't care about it, they ate and drank well today, prepared to go to the guillotine tomorrow, and slept comfortably that night.

The second half of the night.

"You're looking for me?"

Hou Sheng suddenly heard someone talking beside him.

At first, he thought he was dreaming, but then he felt very real, not like a dream, and hurriedly jumped up, and he didn't know when there was a hazy figure in front of him, and he was about to shout in a panic.

"It's me."

The man said again.

This voice, Hou Sheng sounded a little familiar.

He hurriedly lit the oil lamp next to him, and under the big soybean light, he finally saw the other party's face clearly, and said excitedly: "Senior, you are really here!" ”

This person is the master who gave him the pill, but he didn't expect that he would appear the day before after looking forward to it for half a month.

Hou Sheng was moved to tears, and knelt down and begged: "Tomorrow morning, I will have to worry about my life, and I ask my seniors to save my life." ”

"What is the fear for your life?"

This person said lightly: "I happened to be near Xianyang, but I didn't expect you to be in Xianyang, so I came to take a look." ”

Hou Sheng didn't care about anything else, his life was important, he told his own affairs completely, and begged: "I also know that what we did before was wrong, and we were greedy for money, but we don't want to die, ask our predecessors to save me!" ”

"As long as I can survive, I will no longer deceive people in the future, and I will give all the money I have defrauded to the poor people."

"Ask for seniors!"

He pleaded.

The master was silent for a long time, took out a small brocade box from his body, and sighed: "For the sake of our fate, I will help you for the last time, and you don't have to look for me anymore, and it is impossible to find me." ”

Putting the brocade box down, the man pushed the door open and left.

"Thank you, senior!"

Hou Sheng chased him out to see him off, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he found that the man couldn't even see his shadow.

Come without a trace, go without a trace.

Sure enough, it's a master!

"Brother Lu, we are saved!"

Hou Sheng picked up the brocade box and hurriedly ran to the next room, woke up Lu Sheng, and told the master.

"Really!"

When Lu Sheng saw the pill, he cheered excitedly.

That master made a move, and they would probably be able to live.

In the middle of the night, they were so excited that they couldn't sleep.

Early the next morning.

Zhao Gao was wary of them running away, and before dawn, as soon as the curfew ended, he sent people to surround the two of them's residence.

"Your Majesty is waiting for the two envoys, when will you be able to leave?"

One person asked.

Yesterday, they may have been a little scared or even worried, but today they are full of energy, although they don't sleep much, they are still full of energy and feel stable.

"Don't worry, let's eat something and enter the palace again."

Hou Sheng asked, "Did Your Majesty say when we will enter the palace?" ”

The man said, "Before noon at the latest." ”

"That's okay, it's not far from the palace here, we are not in a hurry, and Your Majesty is not in a hurry."

Lu Sheng looked at each other and said arrogantly: "What are you anxious about?" ”

They have full confidence in that master.

The people sent by Zhao Gao had no choice but to surround the neighborhood and wait with them.

If they can take out the elixir, it's fine, if they can't take it out, they will die a miserable death, and Zhao Gao's people can't be angry for two people who are about to die.

——

In order to witness the elixir, Yingzheng gathered a large number of ministers and came to Zhangtai Palace to wait.

Bai Zhong was among them.

But they waited for almost an hour, and they did not see the two messengers coming.

"Zhao Gao, why haven't people come yet?"

Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.

Zhao Gao is worried that something will happen? Hurriedly said: "The minister asked people to urge." ”

After waiting for a while, the urging person finally came back, saying that the two messengers were still there, but they were not in a hurry to go out, meaning to let Yingzheng and them continue to wait.

"Then wait!"

Ying Zheng said lightly: "If they can't wait for what I want, they will regret it!" ”

Everyone could feel the chill emanating from Ying Zheng's body, Zhao Gao was even more panicked, so he could only continue to wait, hoping that those two guys would not be ignorant.

Yingzheng took so many ministers and waited for nearly an hour.

Those ministers complained a lot about the two envoys and were angry, but now they didn't dare to show it, so they had to endure it first.

"Your Majesty, the messenger is here!"

At this time, someone came in and said.

"Herald!"

Ying Zheng said loudly.

After a while, the two god sticks strode into the main hall of Zhangtai Palace, looking at their radiant appearances, as if they were full of confidence.

Is this really refining the elixir?

Everyone couldn't help but speculate.
